Let's review what you already know about quadratics

2
Absolute Value Equations
We solved these in chapter 2; let's make sure you have mastered these
3
Examples
|5| = 5 because it is 5 units away from 0 on a number line
|-3| = 3 because it is 3 units away from 0 on a number line
4
Multiple Select
|x+2| = 4
Choose all that apply
-6
4
-4
2
5
Multiple Select
3|x + 1|=21
Isolate the absolute value expression and set it equal to the other side as a positive and a negative.
x = ? Select all that appy
-10
-8

Solving Equations
Solving Absolute Value Equations doesn't change the fact that we need to isolate the variable
7
Note: a constant is a term that doesn't contain a variable. In 5x +2, the constant is 2 because it doesn't contain a variable. It is 'constantly' 2, unlike 5x which can change depending on the value of x.
8
Multiple Select
|-4 + x| = -4x + 6
Notice that the absolute value expression is isolated. The rule doesn't change just because there are x's on both sides of the equal sign. Set the absolute value expression equal to the positive and negative values of the other side. Select the 2 correct options.
-4 + x = -4x + 6
-4 + x = 4x + 6
-4 + x = -4x - 6
-4 + x = 4x - 6
9
Multiple Choice
First solve -4 + x = -4x + 6. You must move all the x's to one side of the equal sign and all the constants to the other. What is the result?
-3x = 2
3x = -10
-5x = -2
5x = 10
10
Multiple Choice
Divide both sides by 5 to solve x = 2.
But we have the 2nd equation to solve.
Solve -4 + x = 4x - 6. Move all of the x's to one side of the equal sign and the constants to the other. What is the result?
-3x = 2
-3x = -2
5x = -10
5x = -2
11
Multiple Choice
Divide both sides by -3 to solve x = 32
Check both solutions; x = 2 and x = 2/3
Are they both correct, or is 1 solution extraneous? Select the correct response
x = 2
x = 32
x = 2 OR x = 32
12
Combining Like Terms
When adding and subtracting like terms, the exponents do not change
Terms with like variables and exponents have their coefficients added/subtracted

Multiple Choice
We will use the quadratic formula in chapter 2. Which is the quadratic formula?
x=2b+b−4ac
x=2−b−b−4ac
x=2a−b±b2−4ac
x=−b±2ab2−4ac
18
Quadratic Formula
Used to find x-intercepts of a parabola
Useful in real-world scenarios, such as finding the time it takes for an object to reach the ground
Order of Operations is very important when using the Quadratic Formula!
19
Time to practice plugging numbers into just part of the quadratic formula.
Remember to plug in numbers in parentheses to avoid mistakes!

a=3, b=2, c=-5

You also have to simplify radicals when using the quadratic formula
Remember simplifying radicals with a factor tree!

Lots of factoring in chapter 2!!
We can factor rather than use the quadratic formula to find the x-intercepts of a parabola.

Hopefully you remember how to foil!
If you didn't take good notes from the video quiz, here are the steps again...
32
The opposite of factoring is FOILing
FOIL = First, Outer, Inner, Last
First: multiply the 1st term in each group
Outer: multiply the outside terms (first term of group 1 by second term of group 2)
Inner: multiply the inner terms (second term of group 1 by first term of group 2)
Last: multiply the last term in each group
33
Multiple Choice
Simplify (Hint: FOIL)
